phylloscopus Warblers on Linosa

They are part of the magic.

Some headlines.

• Chiffchaffs are ubiquitous. At a guess up to 1000 on the island every day?
• Yellow-browed Warblers on Linosa have completely changed the status of the species in Italy.
• I obtained a call of one of the Yellow-browed which was new to me and others.
• And we even saw ‘leaf warblers’ that were a real struggle to name.
• Beautiful backdrop of Tamarisk and Prickly Pear Cactus
• Warbler food (moths and butterflies) are good too!
• A Dusky Warbler sang for  whole week on the first spring recce by Hans Larsson. All kinds of rare phyllosc possibilities for the future…
